The researcher's work is focused on examining the impact of various challenges faced by vulnerable populations, particularly those with disabilities or specific health conditions, across multiple domains including mental health, healthcare access, nutrition, and substance use. Their research integrates methodologies such as qualitative studies, statistical analysis, and surveys to explore barriers, misconceptions, and interventions affecting individuals in these areas.

Department of Community Health
The researcher primarily focuses on two themes within health sciences: cancer genomics and diabetes management education, both applied globally, particularly in Africa. Their work involves analyzing circulating tumor DNA in oncology patients to support non-invasive cancer genomic studies, while also examining self-management programs for adults with type 2 diabetes Mellitus at a tertiary healthcare facility in Ghana.
Department of Community Health
This research focuses on the global disparities in cervical cancer screening uptake and primary healthcare access among vulnerable populations, with specific attention to urban vs. rural contexts and socioeconomic factors across several domains.
Department of Community Health
The researcher's work is centered around advancing membrane separation technologies for separating volatile fatty acids from waste streams, with a strong emphasis on their biodegradability. Their research extends into anaerobic digestion, where they explore methods to enhance biogas production and analyze microbial communities in pilot-scale reactors. The researcher also investigates the removal of fluorides using nanofiltration and reverse osmosis techniques, highlighting their role in water quality management. Furthermore, their work delves into energy recovery through anaerobic digestion, examining how substrate proportions influence the long-term performance of these systems. The impact of these technologies on the environment is significant, particularly in reducing fluorides and managing sulfur-based compounds like sulfonamide resistance genes. Additionally, the researcher studies SARS-CoV-2, which involves both wastewater treatment processes and life cycle assessments to monitor its fate across various stages. Their research underscores the importance of understanding microbial dynamics and energy recovery through membrane systems, contributing to sustainable practices in waste management and environmental monitoring.
Department of Community Health
The researcher investigates the molecular mechanisms of viral integration into host cells, focusing on the study of RNA and protein interactions that guide viral genome into cellular machinery, particularly in the context of mRNA surveillance systems.
Department of Community Health
The researcher's work is centered on understanding and advancing educational assessment, pedagogical practices, mathematics education, legal issues in education, statistics education, and critical thinking development across diverse domains. Through rigorous literature reviews, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, case studies, and deeper theoretical investigations, the researcher explores themes such as probability assessment, ethnomathematics integration in teaching geometry, examination malpractices in BECE, student proficiency in solving probability problems, statistical literacy, teacher values, curriculum development, pedagogical practices, engineering education, critical thinking development, policy frameworks in education systems, and the role of technology in learning. The researcher employs a comprehensive methodological approach to examine these areas, integrating methodologies like literature reviews, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and case studies to address key issues in mathematics education, statistics education, and teacher education.
